Justin Miller's bridge came to the Spade Farm from Lewis Creek in 1958, seven years after the Museum Bridge came to Shelburne. It served as an attraction for a popular restaurant that once did business here. Bridge historian Richard Sanders Allen dated this bridge circa 1850.

The Covered Spans of Yesteryear website notes that this bridge was originally located in North Ferrisburgh where it crossed the Lewis Creek.

Today the privately owned bridge is part of the Vermont Flannel Company.
